Stunning Artist School Borough market Shard view London Bridge Bankside SE1

Artist school Borough market
The Redroom is a well kept secret, a huge (1400sq ft) and lovingly crafted apartment in the Borough London Bridge A true bohemian hideaway in a private location in central London in the shadow of the shard and quite unlike anything you will have experienced before London Bridge stations a 3min walk Borough market food, the river, the shard, the great history! This undiscovered space utterly satisfies the imaginative who want to privacy, security, comfort, peace and quiet. Designed to stimulate the mind.

The space is one huge high ceiling-ed room - a rich playground of curious antique objects and rich textures with big studio windows creating a haven of light and warmth. There is a wonderful freestanding copper bath next to the bed as well as a separate modernist shower room. Things in the Red Room are not what they seem - a chest of drawers becomes a staircase to a secret cupboard. A floor to ceiling mirror is the door to a polished plaster bathroom. A collection of cupboards and tables conceals an extraordinary Parisian kitchen. The Red Room challenges preconceptions of what is possible. It is a fantastical space like no other in the heart of old London. A bespoke serviced stay is available - from shopping, laundry and hair cutting to acupuncture and meridian massage.

I am a huge fan of 40 Matlby st for creative tasty modern food or the Anchor and Hope on The Cut, for traditional hearty English food lunchtimes the superb and specialised italians O'ver or Padella at the Borough Market and El Vergal Argentinian and organic on Southwark Bridge Road. You rarely hear a sound from neighbours and at weekends the area is eerily quiet. A perfect hideout in town.
